Hi folks,
I don't know where to ask this question. I was hoping you can shed some light. This isn't really for whole lawn sprinkler system. I'm thinking of buying a submersible pump which is 1/3 HP and capable of 22 gallons per minute according to the specs. What I am planning to do is submerge this pump in a 55 gallon plastic container filled with water, and then connect a garden hose with a sprinkler at the end. Will it the sprinkler be strong? I'm thinking of putting a maximum of 2 sprinklers only.
The purpose of this is for the application of actively aerated compost tea(ACT) which I am brewing. You can see my videos of my AACT brewing at http://restricted.dyndns.org/aactbrewinglog.html
That's the liquid that I'm planning to spread to my lawn using the submersible pump.
So guys, please let me know if it's strong enough to drive 1 sprinkler head. I just want to easily apply it rather than walking back and forth with a 2gallon water garden can.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Ron
